The error is basically saying that it can't find any configured validation resources. Its a problem in your config files either struts or validation.
Its got to be something in how you've configured struts or validator. I suggest you switch on logging. You should see INFO log messages for "org.apache.struts.validator.ValidatorPlugin" telling you its loading your two validation config files. If you switch on DEBUG for "org.apache.commons.validator" you'll see a whole ton of information about the stuff its loading from those validation config files. The other thing that springs to mind is are you using modules and is your validation stuff configured for the module thats trying to use them?
